Cake Friday: A Cake Fit for a Princess

This week we received a call from a mom whose daughter is currently battling cancer. She wanted to get some special cupcakes for a birthday celebration. Not only did we create special cupcakes for her, but we surprised her with a cake fit for a princess having a princess and pony party. Check out how we created this cake for her.

First, the cake is covered with pink
 fondant and smoothed out. 

Next, pink butterflies are cut out
 and glittered with edible glitter.

Using a touch of water the
butterflies are applied to the cake.

More butterflies!

Gray fondant is rolled into a thin strip.

The fondant is curled up
 to resemble a horseshoe.

The horseshoes are lustered and
dragees are added for a special touch.

Rolled gray fondant is used to create a
 tiara and placed on top of the cake. 

Little pink flowers are added. 

A happy birthday message is written
with food coloring for  Princess Aami!

A surprise for Princess Aami :)
